Hello! No, I haven’t! Did you find a group? This is super exciting!

Hello! Yes, I’ve already heard back from U of A about funding. About a week or two ago, more or less. Are you attending the virtual open house, too?

100% understood. I'm super grateful for how schools have accommodated us and expressed their concern. I definitely see that they care about their students and their well-being. It's an unfortunate circumstance, but I appreciate how they've been working with their students and prospective students. Stay safe!

Other schools are doing that. I hope IU does, too. It feels like we're making this decision blindly, and I'm sure they recognize that. Thankfully, we have some time.

I called Ms. Elkins today and she got back to me afterwards. Do you think they'd do another one? I assume no school will extend our April 15 deadline, too. I was really hoping to go visit, but I understand the circumstances.

IU has cancelled their Open House/reception. If any of you have purchased airline tickets to visit your schools, they may not do refunds but they will give you a voucher so you can use it by a certain time. Stay safe, y'all!

I'm waiting until I hear about funding from all schools before I make that decision, so I hope we hear soon. I'm also visiting the schools I'm seriously considering so I can get a feel for the program, facilities, and faculty. I'm hoping to make a decision well before April 15, but we will have to wait and see.

Haven't heard about funding from U of A either. Maybe closer to the end of the month?

Check your e-mails if you applied to Indiana University! ?

Hello! I haven’t heard from IU either. I believe someone said that their focus was on finding a new faculty member. I don’t know if that’s the reason, but it could be. Not sure if anyone else has heard from them.

Just got my acceptance into University of Arizona! Check your e-mails if you applied!

Hello hello! If you applied to Texas Tech, I believe they are still conducting interviews till mid March. Hope everyone is receiving communication from their programs.

Hi, y'all. This might be a dumb question, but I'm genuinely curious. Do you think it would be acceptable for me to do my video conference interview in my scrubs because it's right after I get out of work? Would this be inappropriate? Or should I change as fast as I can?

Congrats, y'all! Me too. Good luck!

Hello, no I'm sorry for the confusion.This is only in regards to the e-mail we received about the account set-up. They were saying to wait a week to set it. As of right now, we're e-mailing back and forth to see if any troubleshooting might be necessary since I had an error message when I logged in. I'll definitely keep you updated, and they are aware some of us received that same e-mail for the account set-up. I believe your understanding that they will contact us for interviews is correct.

So I called to receive some clarification about those e-mails from TTU, and they said to wait about a week before we try to set anything up. As for those phone interview invitations, has anyone received any communication about that?

Sounds good, thank you for letting us know! I hope they find the right person for their search.

Thank you for providing some clarity! Let's see what happens within the next two weeks!

From what I understand, UT Austin will send them out around the time of their spring break, so just before March 16. I understood they invite people to interview as well, but I don't know. I tried looking up info about U of A, but their website doesn't mention anything. Let me know. I'm rooting for you, for all of us!

Right? I was hoping someone had been interviewed or gotten an e-mail, but I've only read what their website says: "Admission letters are typically sent out in early March indicating whether a student has been accepted and whether the student is being offered funding or is being considered for funding. Students who are accepted to the program have until April 15 to reply." Guess we will have to play the waiting game! Check back in a month, I guess.

This is good to know! Thank you for sharing this information. Hopefully next week or the week after we will start hearing something *pun intended*. Good luck!

Hi, everyone! I've been reading this forum for quite a while and though I'd chime in. Has anyone heard from Indiana University at Bloomington, Texas Tech, UT Austin, or University of Arizona?
